About Kathleen
Kathleen McGlynn is a licensed mental health counselor with 12 years of practice in New York. She helps people who are struggling with anger, addictions, depression, grief, and major life changes. Kathleen emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and calm support during difficult conversations.
She uses clear, practical talk to identify what feels most urgent. Sessions focus on real-life steps people can try between meetings. Kathleen adjusts the pace to match each person’s needs and readiness.
Background and approach
Her work often brings together client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she listens first, then helps people test new ways of thinking and acting. The goal is to reduce distress and build tools that fit daily life.
She has also worked with concerns such as parenting stress, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood issues, trauma and abuse, obsessions and compulsions, hoarding, and challenges related to HIV and intellectual disability. Kathleen adapts her approach based on the presenting problem and what the person says is most important.
Sessions are offered in English and are available by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Kathleen uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.

How client-centered and CBT approaches work online
Client-centered therapy starts by following the person's lead and offering empathic listening. Online sessions let the therapist learn what matters most and shape conversations around the person's priorities and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT online often includes short exercises, thought records, and behavior experiments that can be practiced between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Kathleen will discuss which methods feel like the best fit and adjust plans based on a person's goals and feedback. The process is collaborative - the person and therapist try options and pick what helps most.
Online formats offer real practical benefits. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter, more frequent check-ins and can fit into busy schedules. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
